Pretty mad these days when a "Professional Qualification" such as CPL doesn't get you even close to a job ... whats that about? No wonder there are so many desperate kids out there willing to work for nothing after paying out a fortune!!

Could you imagine going to a doctors surgery to see a doc who was working for free ... lol. Well sir, you haven't fixed 300 broken legs and where's your Keyhole surgery rating? Can't work in a hospital until you've worked on at least 100 pulmonary embolisms as SIC (Surgeon In Command) and have a consultants rating too.

It's all a bit twisted!!

p.s Sorry for the hijack, but I think it prob highlights the reason terms and conditions are stalled and everyone is still on the same wage they were on in 90 something!
